A 100dB dynamic range cmos image sensor using a lateral overflow integration capacitor

The wide DR CMOS image sensor incorporates a lateral overflow capacitor in each pixel to integrate the overflow charges from the photodiode when it saturates. The 7.5/spl times/7.5 /spl mu/m/sup 2/ pixel, 1/3" VGA sensor fabricated in a 0.35 /spl mu/m 3M2P CMOS process achieves a 100 dB dynamic rang... View More
